The way you just described it has been repeated by many NBX techs that I've dealt with over the last 8 months. :) Cisco's IOS updates have their gotchas too, but I've yet to experience one myself, save the exception of only a few key versions of IOS have support for the WIC-1ENET card that goes in the 1700 Routers. :( Nothing like being stuck at 12.1.5(YB1-4), when the rest of the crew is using 12.2.x :( Speaking of that, is there anyone out there that knows of a newer version of IOS for the 1750 that supports Voice and the WIC-1ENET Module simultaneously?!?!

The last vendor I worked with will rename nameless for now, but they had a lot of firmware releases and it would drive us nuts with all the fixes and patches. Worse were the few times they would release a new level of firmware and break something that was working before the upgrade. They reminded me a lot of Microsoft. With all the patches and fixes, its a full time job keeping up with the required patch levels and investigating release notes to make sure nothing else is going to break. Am I going to experience similar problems in the Cisco world? I have customers who are utilizing some advanced features, but not many are bleeding-edge. Those of you who have been using Cisco products for quite some time, whats your process on firmware upgrades?? When do you decide to upgrade and when do you decide to wait for the next release. If I want to run basic things like 802.1Q, prioritized output queues, channeling etc, am I safe running on one version of code for a year or two? I know this is a loaded question, but Im curious what we should expect in larger networks. Should a customer expect all roses with Cisco as compared to the thorns of Microsoft?? Thanks again!!
